Bill Moyers Journal : Robert Reich on the Economy / Honoring Thomas Paine / Escalation of Gun Violence
In this edition of the Journal, Bill Moyers and Robert Reich, former Secretary of Labor under President Clinton, discuss capitalism, the economy, the influence of lobbyists on policy, and the ongoing debate over public healthcare. Moyers then marks the 200th anniversary of Thomas Paine’s death by talking with authors Harvey J. Kaye and Richard Brookhiser about how the ideals of this forgotten founding father still resonate and why Americans both left and right on the political spectrum claim him as their own. An essay on the escalation of gun violence in America and the urgent need for more, not less, gun control rounds out the program. Broadcast date: June 12, 2009. (56 minutes)

- Medicare Tax? Health Care for the Elderly? Let’s look at the facts about the proposed Medicare Tax … and a medical care program for the aged that already exists! What’s the hurry here? The supporters of the proposed Medicare Tax would have you believe that passage of this controversial bill is urgent … that persons over 5 are deprived of needed medical care because they can’t pay for it. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Kerr-Mills Law, passed by Congress in 1960 – enabled individual states to guarantee to every elderly person who needs help the health care he or she requires. We call this health program … Health Opportunity for the Elderly. Thousands of people every day are being helped by its generous benefits. And unlike Medicare, which would substantially increase your Social Security Tax payroll deductions, existing programs are being paid for now by a part of your present tax dollar! Medicare? NO. Health Care for the Elderly? YES! ….. 1964 American Medical Association Ad, A5157.
